Blends, Chunks, & Word Families

What does all this mean and where can I get some answers?

First, check out our power point from Literacy Night that tells you all about how we teach reading and The Big Five we look at in Kindergarten. Click on the link (to the right) Spears Kinder Website - click on Kindergarten Resources - open up Literacy Night.

Second, you can check out these websites.

http://www.abcteach.com/directory/basics/phonics/worksheets/

abcteach.com is a great website if you need to find some extras for your child to do at home or in the car on road trips!

Third, GOOGLE! If at any time you are not sure about what something means or you need some more clarification never be afraid to Google! Be prepared for lots of information, but sometimes you can help the teachers find some great links that even we didn't know about!
